Question

Reynolds Manufacturers Inc. has estimated total factory overhead costs of $95,000 and expected

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

Computation of allocation of factory overhead cost for the Job NO 117:

Now, computing the rate of overhead allocation as:

Pre- determined rate of overhead allocation = Estimated aggregate overhead / estimated number of labor hours

where

Estimated aggregate overhead is $95,000

Estimated number of labor hours is 9,500 hours

Putting the values above:

= $95,000 / 9,500 hours

= $10 per hour.

Computing the overhead cost to be allocated to Job No 117 as:

Overhead cost to be allocated to Job No 117 = Number of direct labor hours  × pre- determined rate of overhead

where

Number of direct labor hours is 2,300 hours

Pre- determined rate of overhead allocation  is 10 per hour

Putting the values above:

= 2,300 hours × $10 per hour

= $23,000
